K-2 ELA Adoption Family Review Night

STEM Exploration Night Shuttle Bus Routes
As with previous in person STEM Exploration Nights, FWPS is continuing its commitment to ensuring the fun STEM event is accessible for families by providing dedicated shuttle buses from areas across our district. Parking is limited at Federal Way High School, and bus shuttles are a great option to get to the event.
Find the route list here: www.fwps.org/STEMExpo/Shuttle
All scholars are welcome to ride the shuttle with a parent or guardian. High school scholars can ride the shuttle by themselves by presenting a permission slip signed by their parent or guardian upon boarding the bus.
Learn more about STEM Exploration Night at www.fwps.org/STEMExpo. For questions, email stemexpo@fwps.org.
